Abstract

This study was conducted during (2014- 2015) in special educational center, Khartoum State- Sudan. The study aimed to predicting of relation between memory difficulties and language disorder among children with mathematics learning disabilities. Researcher used descriptive methods, by applied memory difficulties and language disorder questionnaire which designed by researcher. The community of this study consisted from teachers of children with learning disabilities. Sample was chosen randomly included (40) teachers. Researcher used statistical package for social sciences program (SPSS). Finally, the results are indicate that: The predicting of relationship between memory difficulties and language disorder among pupils with mathematics learning disabilities is significant, the level of memory difficulties among children with mathematics learning disabilities is above moderate and the level of language disorder among pupils with mathematics learning disabilities, is above moderate.
